Rice with Carrot
What you need
- 1 cup rice
- 2 carrots
- 1 onion
- butter
Salt, pepper, water and oil don’t count. Mom always had those.
What you do
Grate the carrots. Soften with the chopped onion in butter for five minutes, add rice and two cups of water, cover, cook low fifteen minutes, rest ten.
How it feels to make
Grated carrot disappears into the rice and just leaves it faintly sweet and orange.
Mom wrote on the back
Grate the carrots, never chop. Chunks stay hard while the rice goes soft.
